Eden Hazard should snub Spurs for Arsenal, says Bacary Sagna

In-demand Eden Hazard has been told it would be an ‘error’ to move to Spurs by Arsenal defender
Bacary Sagna.

The French full-back has claimed the Lille star would be making a huge mistake if he moved to White Hart Lane this summer.

Instead, Sagna thinks Hazard should set his sights on joining him at the Emirates, where he believes he would thrive in terms of performance and success in the years to come.

‘I watch the French league and Hazard is an excellent player. It would be a major signing for Arsenal,’ he said, adding that the attacking midfielder would become an ‘enemy’ if he joined Harry Redknapp’s side.

Sagna told the Daily Mirror that Hazard should spend the coming months assessing where he would be best off continuing his career, with the team that plays the best brand of football likely to be the ultimate option.

He hopes that will be Arsenal, who despite their faltering season are still renowned for playing in an attractive and attacking style.

Should he join, Hazard would be a player who is capable of winning games single-handedly for Arsene Wenger’s men, as he possesses the capabilities to find space, dribble and score goals, Sagna remarked.
